America is Facing A Serious Threat to Our Democracy

Our country is in a state of crisis, with the Constitution and our Democracy under attack by millions of “virtually all white” Americans, who believe they are victims of a conspiracy to destroy their culture and what they believe makes America great. Unfortunately, they reside in an alternate reality, where facts and the truth are irrelevant.

They are addicted to the Fox Propaganda Network, which repeatedly pushes a formula used by Hitler in the 1930s. Instead of blaming the Jews for our problems, Fox blames Liberals and Democrats, who are no longer the loyal opposition with a different political philosophy. Thanks to Fox, liberals and Democrats are now seen as “THE ENEMY” of real Americans, who perceive them as many Germans perceived Jews.

If Liberals and Democrats are the Enemy, that justifies the use of violence against them. Hence, we saw a vicious attack on the symbol of American Democracy, the U.S. Capitol Building on January 6th.  I’m convinced that every member participating in that assault on the symbol of our Democracy, perceived themselves as loyal patriots, trying to take down the enemies of America.

I want to point out that having a conservative news broadcasting company is a good thing. The key point one should understand is the following: Fox is not a news network. Their sole purpose is pushing propaganda and bogus conspiracy theories on their low IQ viewers.

In the minds of many, Trump was sent here by god to save America. Saving America, or making America Great Again are code words for restoring the power and privilege of white people, and what they perceive as their precious Christian values. The real irony is they perceive themselves as patriots, yet they are dedicated to supporting a man whose hero and idol is Vladimir Putin. Yes, Trump wants to become the equivalent of Vladimir in America, a dictator with no respect for the “Rule of Law”. Incredibly, the Republican party supports his goal of becoming America’s first dictator.

In order to fully comprehend what Fox has accomplished, one must understand that Trump supporters make up the largest cult in American history. In fact, they are the largest cult since Hitler took power in Germany during the 1030s. If you want to understand the behavior and thoughts of Trump Cult members, never utilize logic, because that will only serve to confuse you. One must understand that applying logic does not resonate in their world. Here are some pointers which should help you understand cult behavior and why Trump is an icon to millions of Americans.

  • Members can never question or challenge their Supreme Leader.
  • Members cannot criticize their supreme leader
  • The Supreme Leader is always right!
  • When non-cult members use facts and evidence to disprove their beliefs, that actually reinforces their irrational, unsupported beliefs.
  • Cult members take any criticism of their Supreme Leader personally.

As mentioned above, they reside in an Alternate Reality where facts, evidence, logic, and the truth are irrelevant. That alternate reality is fully supported and pounded into their viewers by the Fox Propaganda Network. Their perception of Hillary is a perfect example, illustrating the mind set of Trump Supporters, who never require evidence or proof to support their beliefs.

Over the past 15 years or so, Republicans [not Democrats] have investigated Hillary multiple times. The last one was a 2-year investigation by Trump Attorney General Barr, who found no criminal acts on her part. Despite numerous investigations conducted by Republicans, revealing zero evidence against Hillary, Trump supporters still believe she’s a criminal and chant “Lock Her Up”.

As incredible as it may seem to an intelligent person, here are some of the things many fox viewers [Trump Supporters] actually believe.

  • CRT is a major threat to America. Even worse, they do not understand CRT, but Fox pounds this concept of CRT being a threat to their view of our country every week.
  • WRT [White Replacement Theory]: This thought strikes terror in their minds and is the issue at the heart of everything Fox pounds into them every day of the week. Fox viewers, who are almost all white, are obsessed with this concept.
  • Despite presenting zero evidence, and Trump’s attorneys losing all 62 court cases, many of them presided over by Trump court appointees, the overwhelming majority of Republicans incredibly believe Trump won the election. What?
  • For just a moment, ignore the total lack of evidence and use common sense and logic. Every Trump supporter I know says Democrats are stupid, incompetent buffoons. There are times when I completely agree with that statement. But think about the implications of their perspective. Trump supporters claim Democrats are dumb and incompetent, but on election day, they suddenly turned into brilliant, stealth like technicians, who totally outsmarted Republican controlled legislatures. As a result of that incredibly transformation on election day, they stole the election. I don’t think so!
  • Remember, cult members never require proof or evidence. If you weren’t scared before, this should rock your foundation.
  • The FBI is America’s elite law enforcement agency, yet Trump supporters are convinced the FBI is corrupt. Meanwhile, they dedicate themselves to a Pathological Liar, a crime boss, and con man who surrounds himself with an array of Felons. Incredibly, they see nothing wrong with that stark contrast.
  • Many of them believe the government is using the Covid-19 vaccine to imbed a computer chip in them.
  • Anytime a black person is appointed to an important government position, the all-white Republican Party describes it as an “Affirmative Action” This happened with Supreme Court nominee K. Jackson, who was actually the most qualified nominee in years. She graduated from Harvard and then obtained her law degree at Harvard Law School. She presided over hundreds of cases, which gave her far more experience than any previous nominee in recent years.
  • Many of them believe the January sixth assault on the U.S. Capitol and the U.S. Capitol Police was actually organized and planned by the FBI. Yes, many Trump supporters actually believe this.
  • They believe members of ANTIFA and/or BLM were posing as Trump supporters on January 6th. Did you see any black people rioting? By the way, ANTIFA is a creation of Fox, it does not exist. But that doesn’t stop members of Trump World repeatedly blaming ANTIFA for violent actions.
  • Remember, facts, proof, and evidence are irrelevant in their world.
  • The January sixth assault on the U.S. Capitol and the U.S. Capitol Police was not an assault, but people protesting peacefully. They believe this despite watching thousands of rioters battling against the U.S. Capitol Police.
  • More than 816 rioters were charged with federal crimes.
  • Over 140 Capitol Police Officers were injured
  • Despite all of the above, right wing propaganda experts are re-writing history, telling them what they saw did not happen.
  • Trump supporters somehow believe their right to free speech has been taking away. Of course, if you ask for specific examples, they cannot provide them.
  • Many right-wing state legislatures are writing new laws, under the phony guise of “Voter ID Laws”, which will give legislatures the right and ability to overturn the results of an election, which they do not like. If this doesn’t scare you, nothing will.
  • They believe common sense gun control measures such as “Universal Background Checks”, are a violation of their second amendment rights.
  • Republicans are always angry about poor women having babies which wind up on welfare and/or turn into criminals. They are too stupid to realize that doing away with abortion will result in thousands of unwanted babies being born every year, with many of them possibly going on welfare.
  • Republicans are so dumb they oppose the “Morning after Pill” and other forms of contraception. Hello! If you want to stop thousands of unwanted births, you should be giving away the “Morning After Pill”.
  • Many of them do not believe in “Evolution”.
  • They believe “Climate Change is a Hoax”. This is another example of how they do not understand science. They automatically oppose any proposed bills which want to ensure we have clean water and air. What is wrong with them?
  • Liz Cheney, who has the most conservative voting record in Congress, is a pariah in their party, because she placed the Constitution and our Democracy ahead of the criminal behavior of Donald Trump. Liz Cheney recently said, “If our generation does not stand for truth, the rule of law and our Constitution, if we set aside our founding principles for the politics of the moment, the miracle of our constitutional republic will slip away.” We must not let that happen.”
  • Liz Cheney is a perfect example, illustrating how crazy and dangerous today’s Republican Party is. They don’t want anything to do with a congresswoman who places the constitution and our democracy ahead of loyalty to Trump in today’s pathetic version of the Republican Party.

What is the Primary Goal of the Fox Propaganda Network?

The bulk of Trump’s support comes from uneducated people living in rural counties across America, plus many blue-collar workers. He also has a significant number of professionals [primarily men], who support him. But no matter what part of society they come from, Trump supporters have one thing in common. They all watch Fox and incredibly believe it is a news network.

I read an interesting comment today from Arkansas State Attorney General Leslie Rutledge, who is campaigning for Lieutenant Governor of the state. Ms. Rutledge reportedly said, “At this crossroads in our country’s history, now is the time for Christian conservative leaders to unite and fight together against those who wish to destroy the America we know and love.”

Please take her words seriously because she nailed the primary goal of Fox. Just as Hitler blamed the Jews for destroying the Germany they all knew and love, Fox is always blaming Liberals and Democrats for destroying American values and our Christian culture.

Why should you care? Because Fox has transformed Liberals and Democrats from the loyal opposition, who merely have a different political philosophy, into the ENEMY. If someone is the ENEMY of America, that justifies the use of violence against them. We saw that on January sixth, when Trump supporters violently attacked the symbol of American Democracy, the U.S. Capitol.  There is no doubt in my mind that every one of those people felt their actions were justified because they were defending America against Liberals and Democrats, who were America’s enemy.

You saw what happened to Jews in Germany and something similar is starting to happen here in America. Ted Cruz recently threatened that the state of Texas might secede from the United States and take over the military in that state.

An Arizona Republican Congressman recently posted of a photoshopped anime video showing him appearing to kill Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and attacking President Joe Biden. Before Trump, that would have been unheard of in our country.

There was a criminal trial in Wisconsin where a teenage boy killed 2 demonstrators and seriously wounded another man. I’m very confident that he perceived those people as BLM members, therefore, in his mind they were enemies of America, so his actions were justified.

Fox utilizes the technique they learned from the Nazi Minister of Propaganda, Joseph Goebbels. He taught them, if you repeat a LIE enough times, people will believe it. Fox has become an expert at this type of propaganda. The perfect example is the big LIE about the 2020 election being stolen from Trump. Despite ZERO EVIDENCE and Trump’s attorneys losing all 62 court cases, many of them presided over by Trump appointed judges, because they never produced one iota of election fraud, the majority of Fox viewers incredibly believe Trump won the election. 

Unlike networks with journalistic standards, Fox doesn’t present news, it pushes propaganda onto its low IQ viewers. You can easily recognize a Fox viewer because almost all of them are obsessed with CRT, WRT, AOC, Nancy Pelosi, Hunter Biden’s Laptop, and of course, the border.

Fox is the greatest threat facing our country. If you love America and cherish our values and democracy, you really need to take this threat seriously. If Trump and his supporters succeed in taking over the Presidency, and/or the House and Senate again, the America we grew up in, will disappear.

 

The Democrats Are Dumb

On November 2, 2021 the Democrats lost the election for Governor of Virginia, which had symbolic importance across the country. The Virginia race was a national barometer, reflecting the current mindset of the American voter. It got worse for the Dems, even though they eventually eked out a win, the governor’s race in solid blue NJ was almost a virtual tie. In addition, the longtime Democratic lawmaker, Steve Sweeney, who was expected to run for Governor of NJ in four years, lost to a Republican who was a truck driver and spent only $153 on his campaign.

Here are some interesting results from Exit Polls. At least I think they are interesting.

  • White women with college degrees, voted overwhelmingly in favor of the Democrat [61%] while white women with no degree, voted heavily for the Republican [74%].
  • White men with no degree voted overwhelmingly for the Republican [78%], but in a surprise, white men with a college degree also voted for the Republican, 55% to 44%.

Anyone who is relatively intelligent, should realize those results are a big-time warning that America is unhappy with the performance of the Dems, who control the Senate, the House, and the Presidency. I always say the Dems mean well, but they are dumb. Please read the next paragraph for an example of sheer stupidity when Trump was President.

The Dems completely ignored the Mueller Report, which cited 10 examples of Trump obstructing justice. What were they thinking when they decided to disregard clear examples of Trump literally breaking the law, and instead impeached him on the basis of just one phone call? Unbelievable! Can people really be that dumb? If my argument doesn’t resonate with you, ask yourself how you would feel if the Republicans tried to impeach Biden on the basis of one phone call.

After nine months, the Democrats in power have no significant legislative achievements for the American people, but there’s hope on the horizon. There’s a rarity occurring in today’s political environment. We have a 1.4 Trillion Dollar bi-partisan Infrastructure Bill, which America desperately needs and President Biden has repeatedly tried to pass into law. Unfortunately, the so-called progressive wing of the Democratic party continues to block passage of that bi-partisan legislation. Why? Because they are holding this bill hostage until they can pass a massive, 3.1 TRILLION DOLLAR change everything in America bill.

Please don’t misunderstand me, there are lots of good things in their bill, but the progressives have no perspective, because it will never become law. It doesn’t matter how great you think a bill is, if you don’t have enough votes, it becomes unrealistic and foolish to continually pursue something which will not happen. In life, you rarely get everything you want, so one must opt for being practical. Significantly reduce the size of the bill and try to salvage the most important components. But whatever you decide, it’s imperative that you immediately end the hostage strategy and pass the 1.6 TRILLION bi-partisan infrastructure bill.

The progressive wing of the party should realize they must do something positive for America and the people who elected them. Passing that rare, bi-partisan infrastructure bill would have a big impact on our country. Equally important, it would become a huge legislative achievement for the Dems and President Biden, which they can promote. However, my guess is they are too dumb to realize this and/or they don’t care. But I would love to see them prove me wrong.

If I’m right, the Dems are presenting the Republicans with a gift. They are opening the door very wide for a return of Donald Trump and the Republicans controlling both the Senate and the House in 2022. Such a scenario should be terrifying for those who cherish democracy. Hopefully, the wanna be dictator, crime boss, and pathological liar, will wind up in prison before that happens. But get ready for his successor, who will almost certainly be far more intelligent than Trump.

UPDATE: On November 6th, the House passed a slimmed down, $1.2 TRILLION version of the bi-partisan Infrastructure Bill. Wow! This is great news for all Americans and President Biden.

The legislation will deliver $550 billion of new federal investments in America’s infrastructure over five years, including money for

  • roads, bridges, mass transit, rail, airports, ports and waterways.
  • The package includes a $65 billion investment in improving the nation’s broadband infrastructure, and
  • It invests tens of billions of dollars in improving the electric grid and water systems.
  • Another $7.5 billion would go to building a nationwide network of plug-in electric vehicle chargers

JFK Assassination – Another Delay in Releasing Government Records

On October 22, 2021, President Biden, just as Trump did during his administration, delayed the planned 2017 release of the remaining information on the Kennedy Assassination, still hidden in the National Archives. The new deadline for releasing the remaining records is now December, 2022. Biden blamed the latest delay on problems at the agency with Covid-19. Maybe that is a legitimate concern, but it once again raises the question of why and/or what is the government hiding from the American public.

President Biden said, “Some of the information regarding Kennedy’s death on Nov. 22, 1963, remained off limits to “protect against an identifiable harm to the military defense, intelligence operations, law enforcement, or the conduct of foreign relations that is of such gravity that it outweighs the public interest in disclosure.” Hmmmm…….

JFK was killed on November 22, 1963. That was almost 60 years ago, and our government is still hiding assassination records. Let’s review a timeline of the investigation and the release of government records.

  • The Warren Commission Report, otherwise known as a “Rush to Judgment”, a report very few believed was credible, was released on September 27, 1964.
  • Here’s what really sparked interest in the assassination. The government decided to hide the Warren Commission filles until 2039. Are you serious? Everyone immediately asked why.
  • In 1976 The House Select Committee on Assassinations was commissioned to investigate the assassinations of President Kennedy and Martin Luther King. Their investigation stated there was probably a conspiracy to kill JFK
  • I’m not positive, but after Oliver Stone released his award-winning JFK film in 1991, a public outcry actually worked. The Assassination Disclosures Act, otherwise known as the JFK act of 1992, directed the release of those Warren Commission files to the American people.
  • October,1992: The House passed the JFK Act, which required the creation of an Assassination Records Review Board to review which records should be released. A deadline for the release of the records was given, 2017.
  • From 1994-1998: During these four years, millions of pages were released to the public, but then the ARRB was disbanded. Although a large cache of information was in fact released to the American public, much of it was redacted. Those redactions were allegedly set to expire in 2017, but I don’t believe that happened.
  • The JFK act passed 29 years ago, but the process hasn’t been completed. Almost 16,000 documents still haven’t been released to the American public. And much of the redactions, which were supposed to be removed, still exist. Any reasonable person should be asking why.
  • The CIA allegedly retains approximately 7 key records on the assassination.
  • Just as his predecessor, Donald Trump did during his administration, President Biden delayed the release of remaining records until December, 2022.

The above hopefully outlines what happened to the JFK investigation over the past 58 years and where it stands today. I must admit, like many people my age, I’ve always been fascinated by this highly flawed investigation. Now I’m going to explain why after all these years, I’m still interested in the case. Here we go.

Almost every reliable investigation proved that Lee Harvey Oswald was the lone assassin. There is no reliable evidence contradicting this conclusion, or even indicating, there was a second shooter on the grassy knoll.

But here are several key questions which have never been answered. This is why many people are clamoring for the release of the assassination records, which have been kept secret by our government for almost 60 years.

  • What was Oswald’s motive?
  • Did Oswald act on his own or was he hired to assassinate JFK?
  • What was Jack Ruby’s role?
  • Was Ruby a concerned citizen who angrily reacted to the assassination by killing Oswald?
  • Or, as many people believe, was Ruby acting on the behalf of organized crime members? That would be Florida Godfather Santos Trafficante Jr, who had a connection with Cuba, and New Orleans Godfather, Carlos Marcello. Many believe those two hired Oswald, and then ordered Ruby to silence him after the assassination.

I’m confident we will never know what really happened. But I would feel much better if the U.S. government would stop hiding almost 60-year-old files and release them to the American public.
